Down Among the Dead Men Lyrics

There's a smell

you get nowhere else

you can feel it in the air

there's an expectation

They've made an empty bed

be careful how you tread

can you remember who brought you here

in the first place

Time doesn't seem to move

you've nothing left to prove

except that you can chew your food

and life doesn't seem to exist

so don't try to resist

You're down among the dead men

down among the dead men

down among the dead men

I know it makes you smile

to play dead for a while

do you even know what day it is

And where's the dignity

it's no fun for me

at least you can pretend you're deaf

And time doesn't seem to move

you've nothing left to prove

except that you can chew your food

and life doesn't seem to exist

so don't try to resist

You're down among the dead men

down among the dead men

down among the dead men

He used to be a player

cool cat

cool, never without a hat

or a tie

or a twinkle in his bright blue,

well worn eye, never shy

always willing to try

never giving up,

giving in,

giving out

He used to be a player

cool cat

cool, never without a hat

or a tie

or a twinkle in his bright blue,

well worn eye, never shy

always willing to try

never giving up,

giving in,

giving out

He used to be a player

cool cat

cool, never without a hat

or a tie

or a twinkle in his bright blue,

well worn eye, never shy

always willing to try

never giving up,

giving in,

giving out

He used to be a player

cool cat

cool, never without a hat

or a tie

or a twinkle in his bright blue,

well worn eye, never shy

always willing to try

never giving up,

giving in,

giving out

giving in,

giving out

giving in,

giving out
